Psalms 55:16-22

ISV(i) 16 I call upon God, and the LORD will deliver me. 17 Morning, noon, and night, I mulled over these things and cried out in my distress, and he heard my voice. 18 He calmly ransomed my soul from the war waged against me, for there was a vast crowd who stood against me. 19 God, who is enthroned from long ago, will hear me and humble them. Interlude Because they do not repent, they do not fear God. 20 Each of my friends raises his hand against his allies; each of my friends breaks his word. 21 His mouth is as smooth as butter, while war is in his heart. His words were as smooth as olive oil, while his sword is drawn. 22 Cast on the LORD whatever he sends your way, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.
